Bonjour

I use Photoshop Cs6 extended with my desktop PC .but recently i have bought a tablet Ipad air 32 gigs

I can import  psd file inside my Ipad (using dropbox or an wifi hard drive)

The problem is that i cannot find an Ios application for openning and edit psd format

For now i have installed on IPAD these apps:Procreate,Artrage,Pstouch,Idraw,Paper,Photogene,Filterstornneue,Photosmith,Photovault,Iphoto,Photo,Actual pixel

I also find on internet Psd viwer for iphone but not working correctly on my Ipad

Some suggestion please?

Thanks

Hello martial

Not to fimilar with Ipad but the only other software that I am fimilar that have been able to open Photoshop PSD files are Gimp and Paintshop Pro and even then there were compatiablity issues. The only other thing might be the size of the PSD file if it exceeds your memory capacity it might not open correctly on your IPad

Unfortunaly Gimp and Paintshop Pro aren't on Ipad.On PC i have no problem for opening psd format

Hopefully someone who has an IPad and more experince will post soon

Hey martial

The Photoshop format PSD is not native to ios so that’s why you’re running into a brick wall.

The native image formats that ios recognizes are, Jpeg, PNG, Tiff and Gif.

However you can open a PSD with a few apps using cloud services as a work around.

For instant, Photoshop Touch will open (but flatten and convert) a PSD file that has been uploaded to Adobes Creative Cloud.

Procreate will open a PSD from Dropbox (using the clipboard), but to save as PSD you must send the file back to Dropbox, (you can save it as a Jpeg or PNG to your device).

A real pain, and since the apps convert the PSD for their use anyway, you lose any advantage you might think you were getting.

 Instead, just convert your PSD’s in Photoshop to either high quality Jpeg’s or PNG’s (which has lossless compression) and all your apps will be happy.

Thanks  Chuck for your reply

I hesitate to subscrib to Creative cloud because i don't use Photoshop CC

Finally .as you suggest, the best way is to edit the image or photo on Pc and save png format for display on Ipad

Maybe with Ios 8..or 9 ,it would be more easyier to transfert pctures from one device to another

I am using iPad and its true that I cant use the Gimp here and also cant open the PSD file.

I can finally open my psd files in Dropbox and from there put on clipboard
